Everywhere, Instagram,YouTube just mention it, they love and want him start alongside proper midfielders..
Aftv, those crew see the game live in London and they are saying it as it is..

Our fans no get chill, if you're not scoring, assisting or keeping clean sheet as a defender or Goalie, get ready to face fire.

..... Lol, you dey mind the Iberibe pundits here as Spy calls them ... na only here I see folks with a different opinion about the lad especially after his performances this season but honestly who cares. I am just happy for the lad and every other youngster playing their heart out for the badge.

How you see my opinion of pepe dropping to the U23s to get form back?

That guy has been one major reason our attack isn't flowing, I'm sure if he can make good use of his footwork to create clear chances,shoot well on goal and releasing ball on time, all these complaints of drab football won't be a say.

..... Lol.... you want make Raul kill Emery be that. I think major Pepe's problem has to do with the fullback supporting him, he doesn't have an understanding with his fullback yet. Chambers has recently shown himself to be an awesome fullback when defending but he doesn't attack enough. Whenever Pepe is given the ball, he tends to have two or more players on him. Yes, he has the ability to draw players to himself and there is more than 80% chance he frees himself from those players but the problem is that, who are the players making runs into space that those players on him have vacated. Where is the number 8/10 who should have moved into space and more importantly, where is the overlapping fullback? These players are usually no place to be found which is why Bellerin coming back is very important. He varies with his movements; he can move in to the midfield or he can do the overlap and he does it effortlessly which is why he had six assists I think before his injury

.... Pepe has his issues too but his dribbling and giving away possession will reduce if he has players moving into space and giving him options. He will come good in time but that chemistry can only come about if he is playing in the first team, not with the likes of Balogun and co......

Absolutely spot on.

Pepe can easily pick his man one on one. But when they crowd him up, he would be force to either pass or attempt to dribble all, so most likely to lose the ball. But with rampaging fullbacks overlapping, he has the option to either pass on or use a dummy to open up the opposition defence.

..... Yup, most times our players go dey look am, they watch free dribbles instead of moving into space. I don't blame them sha, it's been a while since we have a dribbler of his Calibre. Emery needs to drill that into his boys, sometimes, dem too dey too static. Hopefully, we will see the real Pepe soon.

..... I expect Tierney to start against Sheffield, Baba Kola with him yeye crosses don frustrate me enough.

It's sad. People taking one or two banters here and there to heart.

So many emotions going into posts.

U believe just maybe, if the team goes on some decent winning streak of games we will all see beyond our opposing views and get behind the team in full support.

It's normal to have differing opinions and get criticisms, the problem is when people turn it into insults. But nothing dey happen it's just banter. Someone like me won't take it to heart. Ask Sod09.

i hate when i see grown assmen behaving like women. please shield your swords.

Emery's future may well rest on whether Pepe comes good/delivers or not - it looked as if Josh Kroenke was persuaded to get on board with opening the cheque book to buy him, and if he fails, someone is going to be blamed.


Pepe better comes good or that cheque book may never open again.

Curious question how will you guys rate lacazette career so far at Arsenal. He hasn't really had a world class season with us.

I think he's unfortunate to have always been second choice.

When we still had Giroud he was the second choice behind Giroud.

Now we have Auba and he's still second choice. Do spite this, I think he's done his part and and has even done beyond my expectations. Considering the fact he's dealt with injuru concerns in the past, I think he has developed me well. At least he's scored some goals that have saved our face when we needed them.

he may not be the ruthless but he always come through when we need him and that's the important thing.

Agreed except the part you said he has done beyond expectations. I will say he hasn't proven his price tag.
Lacazette as a striker has had a fairly mediocre return considering his price-tag, that's before we even get into his away goals record which is nothing to write home about.

Selling iwobi for 40m is the best deal ever
Over to the SE fans to finish him off

Swissh:

For me he has been very good and justified his price tag, He definitely may not have that world class like Sallah's first season, but he proven to be a very key figure in this team.. There's a reason he is always on fans favorite line up and was voted Arsenal's POTY.

Lacazette is as important to the team as Auba or even more in big/tough games. He is similar to Firmino, he may not be giving you goals, but he'll give you points. He either assists, creates,start a good build up,win you penalties and score classic individual brilliance goals.

Kudos to the super eagles for keeping it tight against the Brazilian side, it sure will boost morale/confidence of this team.
Iwobi had a bad day in the office and Onachu should please be axed.

Shout out to Awaziem,Ndidi,Aribo,Chukwueze and others, they showed character and signs of good future..

Its a good result against a team with players from top European FC..
PSG (4)
Man city(2)
Liverpool (2)
Barca(2)
Madrid(1)
Atletico(1).

..... Firmino is one of a kind bro. Lacazette has nothing on him in my humble opinion, they are completely different. Laca is a good back to goal striker and can hit well with both feets. I am not his biggest fan I won't lie but he gives his all for us on the pitch and I think that's why fans love him a lot.

.... That his goal against Tottenham recently still dey scatter my head; the first touch, control and finish with his weaker foot and then the cold stone celebration no be here bro. He is a very lively player but has he justified his price tag yet if one is looking at it from the angle on goals. I think not, and the jury is out on him on that one.

..... Ndidi na beast of a player abeg. He read the game really well. Iwobi was a bad day at the office for me but what I hate is that there isn't a like for like replacement for him in the squad. Same thing is happening with Victor. Forget oh, Tammy Abraham would have improved our squad gaan but since he no gree, they should invite Dennis, the guy that plays for Club Brugge and perhaps, Chuba. We really need options, that Tall striker no be am at all.

Okay let me put it this way:

Considering the fact that Lacazette has had to deal injury concerns in the recent past, when fully fit he's had to compete for the top 9 role with a world class striker in person of Auba and even when they both start they have this camaraderie thingy going on between them (in which he let's Auba take the shine most times), I think Laca is definitely not giving a mediocre returns.

Except u are expecting him to be struggling to take the shine off Auba like what they have going on at Anfield that has sparked a row between between Salah and Mane, I believe Lacazzette is doing fine. When he's called upon, he does his bit quite well enough.

Anybody that wants to judge him from the angle of goals should consider the fact that 2018-2019 season he was dropped to the bench in favour of Auba and he still got voted as Arsenal's player of the season ahead of the Epl golden shoe winner( which shows he gives the team much more than goals)

Who knows if Pepe would have click if ozil was playing especially when our attackers are always feeding on scrap.
Only in Europa and caraboa cup we are scoring team goals, in EPL na any where belle face.

.... Those are parameters(including fans vote) that don't really matter when it comes to his return in front of goals. I remember at a point last season, Auba wasn't starting or didn't play for 90minutes before being withdrawn for Welbeck. Emery actually preferred Laca at a point so it wasn't all rosy for Auba. Thing is; one is deadlier than the other in front of goal so naturally Auba started on top more later on but still Emery found a way to put in Lacazette. I think he values Laca more but should both players leave Arsenal today, they will be judged by their goal returns and Lacazette won't be seen a prolific striker even if he has started as a nine in more games than his other partner. That's just the undiluted truth

I understand you, and I know you are not a big fan of his,and I like that you analyzed him with logic as against a stvpid hatred manner

For sure he isn't like firmino,but I believe he style can be similar to him if flanked with good scoring wingers or AM.

That goal against spurs is classic, his individual brilliance goals against big/tough teams is the reason why I like to see him on my screen.
